| The order of learning tango | 04 Mar 2024 | 00:07:30 | |
Today we’ll discuss the order of learning things in tango. Let me be clear: I am not saying there is ONE correct way to learn tango and all the others are wrong. All I am saying is this: This way did miracles for me. It worked for me. So listen to it, take it with a pinch of salt, and forget about it if you think it’s not for you.

Today we’ll discuss the position of your hips in tango. I didn’t really become aware of my hips position till last year, and I still have much to learn and embody. Today, I’ll share with you a little funny event that let me understand my hips better.

| Sara Grdan & Ivan Terrazas 3/3 - Tango Interview | 12 Feb 2024 | 00:39:50 | |
Today I’ll share with you the third part of the interview I did with Sara Grdan and Ivan Terrazas, two wonderful tango teachers that I wish I had met earlier. If you haven’t heard the first two parts yet, I recommend looking for them in the list of episodes. In this third part of the interview we talked about how we, the students, as spectators, develop an ‘educated taste’ based on the performances we watch. We discussed the magical function of the thumb - spoiler alert: There is no magical function - and why do people leave tango? We also talked about one very important thing you need to observe about your teachers when they are in a milonga.

| Sara Grdan & Ivan Terrazas 2/3 - Tango Interview | 06 Feb 2024 | 00:25:03 | |
Today I’ll share with you the second part of the interview I did with Sara Grdan and Ivan Terrazas, two wonderful tango teachers that I wish I had met earlier. In this part of the interview we talked about the tango vocabulary. the words and phrases we use to explain and teach tango and their importance. Things like: Spiral, connection, dissociation, being grounded, just relax, use the floor. We discussed how tango boils down to two words. We then talked about the three questions a student should ask their teachers to make sure they understand every new information they try to teach them. It’s a brilliantly simple sequence of questions that you can use with any teacher. Then we discussed musicality. Sara and Ivan have a refreshingly different perspective about musicality than the usual, I loved this part. Finally, we touched upon improvisation and what it truly means.

| Sara Grdan & Ivan Terrazas 1/3 - Tango Interview | 01 Feb 2024 | 00:48:26 | |
Today I’ll share with you the first part of the interview I did with Sara Grdan and Ivan Terrazas, two wonderful tango teachers that I wish I had met earlier. After 14 years of learning tango, I can confidently say I have never met another couple that could explain to me with so much clarity what I need to do to improve and how to get there. I flew from Portugal to Croatia to have classes with them and they also helped me online. In this part of the interview we talked about the ugly truth of the plateaus that most dancers realise 5-6 years into their journey and the difference between dancing with conventions instead of the inherent language of the body. We talked about what neural mirroring and two monkeys crossing a river have to do with leading and following. We discussed expressions that confuse me such as free the free leg, resist more, resist less, and other funny phrases. We covered dancing in freedom instead of carrying the follower, and we touched upon the feeling of chemistry that we sometimes feel when dancing with another person and its origin. Really awesome stuff. And that was just the first part of the interview.

| Antonella Terrazas Part 1/2 - Improving your tango, adjusting, and practicing | 03 Jun 2024 | 00:45:29 | |
The first part of the interview with Antonella Terrazas. In this part of the interview we’ll start by exploring her early years and then cover what elements of other disciplines can help you in your tango, and what it means to adjust to your partner but not in a submissive way. We’ll also discuss the benefits of working without a fixed partner. I particularly enjoyed her answers when it comes to dancing or practising with someone that is not such a good fit.

| Oa Metzner Part 3/3 - processed baggage, alignment & feet articulation, resistance & density in argentine tango | 29 May 2024 | 00:37:00 | |
The third part of the interview with Oa Metzner. In this part of the interview we’ll cover resistance, density, lightness and heaviness in argentine tango. We’ll also cover how Oa would start again if she was starting today from zero, and we dived deeper into the role of processed emotional baggage in our dance. Finally, we closed by touching a bit on the importance of alignment and feet articulation and the difference between leading and following from the outskirts of the body vs leading from the core. If you haven’t heard the previous episodes, I invite you to listen to them too, before or after this episode. They were eye-opening for me, and I hope they can do the same for you.
